Hamburg show, new addition

Guttersnacks Jun 11, 2007 06:48 AM

I picked this little guy up at the Hamburg show. Now, I wasn't QUITE as concerned about locale as I know it's gonna get bred to a non-locale when it's mature enough. I'm betting it's just a plain mix of "whatevers" but hopefully still all pure alterna. I was looking for a nice orange saddled one and there seemed to be only one guy who had any at this show.
I was TOLD the babies had eaten pinkies, and were from Mark Bell. I dont know anything about Mark Bell other than that the name sounded familiar. Also, I do have some doubt that they had eaten. They looked to be fresh out of the egg really as all 4 snakes in the deli cup had shed within the same 12 hour period.
I'm curious to get some feedback on it....I wish I paid attention to who I got it from. For anyone that was at the show, it was the table sitting perpendicular from the Animal Rescue table and I know the guy came from New York, as I saw his license plates on his car as he was unpacking for the show...
I can try to get better closeups if anybody would be interested for better verification.
Regardless of the feedback I get, I still really like the way the snake looks and intend to keep it. The feedback will just allow me to understand what I'm doing when I breed him in a few years.
